Miro Reviews & Product Details - Page 7

What I like most about Miro is that it offers an incredibly versatile whiteboard for every type of collaboration. The intuitive and easy-to-use interface makes it particularly easy to share content with others. I often use it for brainstorming and planning new products and services, as well as for interactive workshops and presentations with clients. As a freelancer, I particularly appreciate the good value for money, which provides me with an affordable way to collaborate professionally and efficiently with others. Additionally, I am impressed by the simplicity of implementation, which allows even complex ideas and processes to be quickly visualized and organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I don't like about Miro is the license management. It is somewhat too easy to accidentally incur additional costs, for example by adding team members without having a full overview of the resulting fees. However, the customer support helped very quickly and kindly to resolve the issue, which I really appreciate. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Miro has an amazing interface that is intuitive and easy to use, even for first time users. I used Miro in my degree at University and now at our company as well. I have done the Miro courses as well, which provided a lot of insight on feutures that I was not aware of. The drag and drop functionality, templates and collaboration features stand out the most for me. Miro also allows for integration with Jira, which is a software we use for our development and project management team which has created the addition of tickets to the boards of great use and allows us to streamline our workflow. We use it with our clients as well in order to visualise ideas in real time and brainstorm with the client as well as internally. I use Miro daily and it always pinned to my taskbar. I have not yet used the customer support, which is a comment on how well the platform works. Our company has easily been able to implement Miro into our daily functions and meetings.

Miro frequently changes the interface and where things are situated on the tabs. An icon or functionality that used to be on the top bar will sometimes move to the side-bar. This has hindered efficiency on occasions. Otherwise, very happy with Miro 99.99% of the time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

- large library of templates

- possibility to work simultaniously with other colleagues on a board

- great tool to prepare and roll out workshops with customers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Only thing that would be great is a more intuitive way to share a board with a non-member of the team, eg. for workshop preparations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The versatility of Miro makes it a tool that can eliminate the need for many other platforms/software/subscriptions. We use it for so many things in our organisation. We do end-to-end service design projects in Miro, host workshops, create information architecture and wireframing. Our Kanban boards are on Miro, our project planning, stakeholder presentations and so much more. As a fully remote organisation, it enables us to seamlessly collaborate across the country and with clients who are fully remote themselves.

The fact that guests can join boards makes it easy for us to host workshops with clients who are outside of the organisation without them having to create Miro accounts. The app and browser options also means that new/short term users don't have to download the app in order to use it (helping us avoid disgruntled stakeholders joining for remote workshops).

Being able to pull PowerPoint presentations, PDF files and other files in and extract pages is extremely helpful in keeping the workflow in one place. During the Discovery phase of our projects, we ca accumulate a lot of artefacts that need to be considered, and this function makes it possible for us to have a bird's eye view of all of them. The integrations with software like Figma is a huge plus as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are small things about Miro that can make it a bit challenging to use, but these are annoyances at worst. Like not being able to add gradients to shapes, or not having overlay options besides lowering the opacity of a shape. All in all, the platform is powerful, useful and I don't know how large organisations get by without it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the flexibility of Miro and the ability to collaborate virtually with my team. I have used it for years for my own brainstorming and it recently became useful for cross-team collaboration. I used it in several stakeholder engagement workshops. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I want people to be able to collaborate without making an account. If they are just hopping into a workshop, I want them to be able to add their names to their cursor so I can see who writes what. People don't always want the account if they are only using it once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The variety of stuff you can do on miro such as Home work, Notes, lessons and presentations. the customer support is also incredibly helpful. I use miro almost every day for stuff such as notes and work. Miro is also incredibly easy to use as it uses a really simple design which is very easy to understand and use. It is also really good with integration as you can do many things at once on the same slide. Implentation is also very easily done with miro as it is all given to you in forms of different tools.

personally I havent had any issues with miro yet so far Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface is very user friendly, it is an intuitive tool and it helps my team and I be creative at work everyday. Also, when in need for support it's really easy to get in contact with Miro and get a quick answer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When I import Power Point presentations, they don't look the same in Miro as they do in the original version. Also, some features that were working just fine fail suddenly with no easy fix. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are two main draws for Miro for me - the ease of use and the design language. The ease of use of Miro has been instrumental in creating architecture diagrams, charts, and other assets that are critical in my role. Adding new components and editing them is fast. Moving around the board is also very intuitive, with a left click to select and right click to pan. I rarely have to fight Miro to get it to do what I want to do, which I can't say for other diagramming tools.

The second draw is the design language. It looks good out of the box, which enables me to create presentable, customer facing boards without doing too much work. Navigating around the UI is also very pleasant.This is really critical because the learning curve is very shallow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The biggest pain point with Miro for me is the Text box component. I have to always fight it to get it to work. Resizing is not easy, and changes the font size of the box by default. And the lack of markdown support makes formatting any block of text very manual. Text is a large part of diagramming so it'd be great to see an improvement on this component.

A second pain point is that the set of icons that are available out of the box are very limited and basic. I can get more via adding integrations, but that process is not seamless in my opinion - I haven't been able to truly get it to work and it's unclear if I add an icon pack if it adds it just for me or the whole workspace. It would be great if more icons that are commonly used are available by default, similar to how One Model does it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a designer who loves to use a whiteboard to think and process ideas, Miro has been excellent. While working with my remote team, I will regularly spin up a new Miro board to start sketching out designs, drawing up the user workflows, organizing research insights, and more. We keep our whole org chart in a Miro, so it's easy for everyone to access and understand the shape of the org. Over the holidays, we created some templates so we could use Miro to play board games virtually, and it was so fun! Honestly, I wouldn't get through the week without it.

Miro can be fickle when it comes to user permissions. When anyone creates a new board for a group, we always have to ask everyone "Do you all have access?" If they don't, it can be a pain to track down the right place to invite users to edit the board. I wish they would use a simpler permissions system similar to Google Drive, where you can just look up anyone in your org by name and add them directly to the board. No need to go find the list of people in the project and add them to it by their email address. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use Miro for all events in our SW development: review, planning, retrospective, and refinements. We even migrated product backlog into there from Jira as having it visual makes it so much easier to collaborate.

I cannot imagine our

Because Miro is super visual it allows you to share and explain complicated topics with an audience that is new to the domain. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

People without full license have limited options to collaborate (only comments). I wish we could buy them a temporary "two hour license" to enable them for that particular event. For example, our sprint review every two weeks where we invite external customers - does not make sense for them to buy a full license but if we could give them one, that would be great.
